Quantum materials are a class of exotic materials with special properties that are governed by quantum mechanics rather than classical physics. Those properties—like superconductivity, entanglement and unusual forms of magnetism—often ...
Medical Xpress / AI chatbots mimic fear, sadness and stress, then calm down after mindfulness exercise
Large language models (LLMs) can replicate human emotions like fear, sadness and anxiety, and be "calmed down" by a breathing exercise, suggests a study published in The Lancet Digital Health. This means LLMs could potentially ...
Medical Xpress / Moment-to-moment memory access may depend on histamine neuron swings
The same memory can feel vivid and accessible one moment, yet stubbornly out of reach the next—even when the memory itself remains intact. A research team led by Professor Hiroshi Nomura at the Institute of Brain Science, ...
